  1. I really don't think your Montage is crazy at all. LoL.
    I can appreciate this piece because of how much depth it reflects. I feel a variety of emotions from these pictures. To me it looks personal. I see Family and Loved ones which emulate joy and love. I also see heartache and sorrow with the tombstone and a pregnant woman most likely widowed because of War. War is never a good thing. I think your contrast is great. I like the quote " All gave some, some gave all". It reminds me to appreciate freedom in this country and the families who sacrifice their loved ones to defending this country.The eyes and fingers touching in the background also makes this triptych very personal. Overall Good composition. Nice Work.

  2. One thing about this peice is it is very personal to me, I am an Army brat and have constently grown up around members of the armed forces. I don't know if you can tell because the size of the over all peice or the faded part of the background, but it is also composed of the images of arlington national cemetary and the world war II monument.. but like I said, they're very faded in together so its hard to tell behind all the other images

  3. These are completely beautiful. I am genuinely moved by them. And I am particularly effected by how smoothly they all work together to make one big panoramic.

    Beautiful.

  4. This is a very moving piece. It shows a lot of emotion and is very beautiful. I like how you faded the entire image and give it a hazy feeling, almost as if it is a dream of some sort.

  5. This montage has a glow and an appeal that really touches the heart. In a sense it does pop because it speaks for itself. The tone may be emotional and almost dark, but the triptych does POP out when you look closely at the detail. I feel like size could have been used more effectively to add contrast. But, this piece speaks out well and really portraits the emotions the artist's wanted.

  6. This piece is very powerful. The silhouetted soldier in the first image has good placement, and I think the opaque colors work really well. I would have done nothing different. Great job!
